Itunes updates and installs with auto update turned off
Win 7 keeps updating and installing itunes12 on my computer. I do not want ver12 as it locks up my computer or makes my apps run very slow. I have un installed it numerous times, deleted previous libraries,and installed ver 11.4. It works great then in the morning ther is ver 12 installed again. I have turned off auto updates and still have this problem. What have I missed?

Retina Macbook Pro Graphics Jittery and worse with graphic switching turned off
I recently updated my computer I've been running Mountain Lion since it was available. But recently I performed the apple updates (which I don't think had anything to do with graphics) and suddenly everything is jittery, choppy and freaking out. I could be wrong but just suddenly the other day everything was super choppy.
Turning off "Automatic Graphics Switching" actually makes it every MORE jittery and choppy. I have to keep it on otherise I cannot even scroll a webpage with out the jittery making it impossible to see anything until I stop scrolling.
I notice the choppness when using expose, switching desktops, sometimes when scrolling in Google Chrome (Definately when the AGS is turned off), going into full screen app mode, and my top bar lags and you can see it flash when it refreshes itself.
I've tried clearing my PRAM with no luck and also tried an SMC reset, again with no luck.
Any thoughts? This is incredibly annoying!I was able to fix the graphics by the following:
Creating a time machine backup
creating a bootable Mountain lion SD Memory card (I didn't have a USB sick available)
Booted into the recorvery manager
Erased the disk
reinstalled Mountain lion from the SD Card
Imported my data from Time machine. IMPORTANT: I didn't included any settings or "other settings" I just moved ONLY apps and files
My desktop appeared to be just as it was before, all apps and everything in the correct place (Go Time machine!)
Programs with issues after re-install:
AutoCAD 2013 for mac had some folder issue, AutoDesk had a workaround (I just uninstalled it, I don't use it much)
Virtual Box running a Windows 7 install completely crapped out (I never wanted to use Windows on my Mac anyways)
Mail app had to re-initialize, but all settings and account information was saved. Just had to wait for it to download the all the emails from my accounts again
That's all I found so far! I'm glad to have the screen animations back to felling like butter. Makes me love my Mac all over again! -
Using Win 7 and latest download of iTunes, the software will not recognize my music CDs when inserted in my DVD drive. I put a CD in the drive and nothing happens. iTunes does not have a "start" button, or some menu option to tell it to begin copying music to the library, so it just sits there. When I first installed iTunes, it would open the CDs, but I would get an error message after the first track started to transfer. Now, after a coupel uninstalls, disc cleanup, etc., nothing happens when I insert the CD. I am lost here and about to sell my new Ipod Classic because it is useless to me. Maybe I'm just too old to own something like this? Any (serious) suggestions would be appreciated.
In iTunes, do Store->View my AppleID
Click "Deuthorize ALL"
Then, on any computers you still have, do Store->Authorize this computer. If there are less than 5, you will have no problem.
You can only do "deauthorize all" once a year, so in the future, if you ever throw a computer away, remember do to "Store->Deauthorize this computer" first. -
I cannot change song order on playlists (old or new) with highlight and drag. I have turned off shuffle and highlighted the far left column (up/down arrow) of playlist. My mac pro is running 10.5.8 and am using itunes 10.4. I can't drag and drop "music" to "playlist" but can right click and get the option to "add to playlist." No such option for moving song within playlist, only the up and down arrow which moves song from top to bottom list, so if it is #4 from top it will move to #4 from bottom. Stupid I know. I spent over an hour with Apple support, reinstalled itunes, restarted and rebooted computer. Networked with my laptop which is running 10.6.8 and itunes 10.4 and it can drag and drop. The final Apple support solution was to reinstall my operating system. I would prefer not to. Any other ideas?
After looking at other people's posts, I think it's official: there is a bug. Itunes support said I should not have lost the drag/drop tool and I haven't on the laptop that is running itunes 10.4 and operating system 10.6.8. I chatted with someboby who lost both his drag/drop and side scroll and what we have in common is a wacom tablet for a mouse. My laptop is a wireless mouse. I reinstalled whatever updated driver that wacom has out there, shut the system down for night, hoping for magic, but alas none to be had. So if I want to change song order, I network the laptop and desktop, share the screen on the laptop, drag and drop to my heart's content and curse Apple for making me work this hard to find the tool that was once at my fingertips. Apple also let me know that if I want to share songs in household that the hundreds on songs that were purchased for .99 need to be repurchased for another .30. Maybe Apple is holding my drag/drop tool captive til I pay up the money or Maybe the next update will fix the problem, I for one give up for now.

How do you update smart playlists with live update turned off?
If I create a smart playlist in itunes and deselect live updating then how exactly does the smart playlist load up?
The reason I ask is that started setting up Smart Playlists for all of the artists on my computer and they're all set to live update which is consequently slowing down my itunes. I realize that I may not necessarily need that. My question is though...how exactly would I go about manually updating a smart playlist that has live updating turned off?Well, the problem is that I have smart playlists for every artist in my library (which is literally hundreds). With every live update turned on, every time I edit tags for a new single or something it'll scan all the smart playlists for matches. The reason I'd like to have smart playlists instead of regular playlists is that I tend to add a lot of singles, and, especially in the hip hop genre, they tend to have a lot of guest appearances so I'd like the smart playlists to do tehir job.....I'd just prefer to not have it set to live update so I can avoid delays during tagging.
Apparently this is a known side efffect of having many smart playlists in your itunes. I realize my way of working with them might be slightly unconventional in comparison to how they are typically used but it's great for me. If I could leave live update on without any performance degregation then I would but it seems I have to pick.
I read somewhere that if you shut down itunes and restart that it'll refresh all your smart playlists (if live update is turned off). -
Firefox won't open/connect tp the internet. Explorer opens and connects. Windows firewall turned off. No other antivirus program running. Happened when I downloaded new Firefox update.
I had the same problem when i dl-ed a new anti-virus softward, but what I did help me reconnect Firefox again!
Here is what I did,
Go to open firefox browser-->option-->advanced-->network-->settings-->and change it to auto-detect proxy settings for this network!
It worked for you, hope it will work for you too =)!

I found a remote service running after the 10.10.3 update.
ps -A|grep remote.
And I had remote management turned off in prefs.
I force quit the process with activity monitor.
This looks as if it could be a problem.Well the term "hotlined" I have never heard before. In any case many states (like NY) just passed regulatory powers to the State Public Service Commission of which it may be called something different in your state. You could file a complaint with them. Or file a complaint with your state attorney generals office, they also take on wireless providers.
The problem here is the staff you speak to are poorly trained, in days gone by it took one call to them and they pulled up your account and see the error and had the authority to remove any errors. They did not remove legitimate account actions, but used their heads instead of putting a customer off or worse lying to the customer.
Its a shame you have to go through what you going through.

my ipod touch has a usb cable picture with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. the ipod will not connect to a computer and is unable to be turned off as there is no red power slider when the power button is pressed. what can i do to fix this?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPad keeps dimming on wakeup. I am on iOS 6. Auto dimming turned off. I have to go to brightness setting and touch it to get the brightness back up to my setting. It does not happen all the time but has happened more frequently lately. Any ideas?
Because GPS has nothing to do with WiFi, cellular signals, or data of any sort. GPS is implemented by signals sent by satellites that are received by GPS receivers. The receivers process the information from the GPS satellites and calculate your location. GPS never sends data anywhere; GPS functionality is receive only.
If you have WiFi or cellular data turned on this can improve the accuracy of GPS, because the GPS receiver can then use the known location of cell towers and WiFi networks to refine the GPS location. GPS by itself has an accuracy of 10 meters, or about 34 feet. Using the additional information from WiFi and cellular data this can be brought down to 3 meters (10 feet). This mode is called Augmented GPS, or A-GPS. -
while in email today, the computer began flashing. I had to turn off with button. When I turned it back on, I got the apple icon and the moving loading wheel. It would turn for about 60 seconds and then stop. I turned off again. I now have a black screen.

when I connect an external hard drive to macbook pro it is very slow to appear on the desktop and Finder window, sometimes 20 mins or more, even with auto backup switched off . any clues?
Hi robfromkinglake west,
Try and isolate the issue. Check if it's only with this drive.
Check the drive with Disk Utility

I've never seen a drive take 20 minutes to mount.

How to get slideshow to Pause and restart with auto play enabled? all slideshow do not restart!
How to get slideshow to Pause and restart with auto play enabled? Happening in all slideshow do not restart once one photo is selected
I agree cwclark, I was going to ask the exact same thing, and yes, the only way to 'restart' the auto play is to reload the page which is frustrating to say the least. Every other site I've seen with this kind of 'auto-play' slide show still auto-plays even after clicking the 'next' or 'previous' buttons. Adobe, you need to get a fix for this ASAP
